It's weird how Apollo 13 has been remembered as a triumph of human space flight, when it is really the best argument against it.

Which is human of us!https://twitter.com/apollo_50th/status/1249897335171104770 …

I think, it might depend on the Mars mission. Early ones, might not have a rescue backup. Later ones, idk maybe.

It's hard to extrapolate contingency scenarios for Mars missions from ~8 day moon missions and speculative fiction
